Extensive weight loss reveals distinct gene expression changes in human subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue
5 Oct 2015
Abstract excerpt
Weight loss has been shown to significantly improve Adipose tissue (AT) function, however changes in AT gene expression profiles particularly in visceral AT (VAT) have not been systematically studied. Here, we tested the hypothesis that extensive weight loss in response to bariatric surgery (BS) causes AT gene expression changes, which may affect energy and lipid metabolism, inflammation and secretory function of...
